Was the writing on the valve cover to denote the timing kit?

Interested but waiting on a car to sell.

Good question!

I use paint pens to denote when the oil change was done last.

Better system (in my opinion) to write when the most recent oil change WAS done, rather than when it SHOULD be done.

I've got more photos, and receipts for $2700 worth of parts along with $400 in tires, just let me know.

The amp for the subwoofer is located in the 'storage tray' beneath the cargo floor. The sub itself was removed for photos - it's a simple pre-fab ported box with a good sub and questionable carpet : D

As you can see in another thread I've started, I enjoy good sound. This setup is simplistic, but sounds great.

I'll PM you with my info to chat more.
